TRAINING: A normal day of training consists of strength and conditioning in the morning followed by a noon session of pads or grappling. Most every other evening I spar or work striking, then off to work.

When and why did you start training for fighting? I started training after wrestling to be a practice partner for a few fighters in the area.

What ranks and titles have you held? Dakota Fighting Championship titleholder with two defenses.

Do you have any heroes? My dad

What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? A great accomplishment that should prove to anyone that hard work does pay off.

Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? Yes. I haven’t earned my degree yet, but am extremely close to getting it in three different majors.

What was your job before you started fighting? Jack of all trades. Seems like I’ve done everything. But my current means of income are driving a truck, working at a bar, and the Minnesota Army Guard.

Ranks in any martial arts styles: All-American Wrestler for Minnesota State (D-II)
